Question

My 17 month old only says a few words clearly, should I be concerned? She does talk in her own words

I am just concerned because everyone says she should be talking in sentences by now and my other two started speaking alot earlier. She does say a few words and understands when we are talking to her, she gets most things we ask her for, and does the things we say to her. She understands everything we say to her, she even tries to have conversations with her brother and sister, just not making much sence. Is that something that I should be concerned with or she will eventually put sentences together? When should I worry? Thank you
